Notre Dame offense focuses on tempo during practice ahead of the season

Notre Dame's football team is emphasizing a faster tempo in their offense during summer practices, a recurring theme in recent years that has yet to fully materialize during the season. Freshman running back Javian Osborne is reported to be back to full strength after a wrist injury, and Aneyas Williams leads the running back group. The team is also addressing past kicking issues, with Purdue transfer Spencer Porath aiming to improve the field goal unit. This renewed emphasis on tempo and special teams comes as the Fighting Irish prepare for the upcoming season.
